Innuendo II

Judith was standing in front of the new mirror feeling really stressed out after a hectic day at the office. She longed for that cool smooth feeling which would cover her bare arms and shoulders, and to smell the distinctive aroma which would, in a strange way, help her to relax. She had grown to like it so much she wore it in all weathers and more recently in the house. Afterall it was waterproof and ideal for sensitive skin.

Jonathan was refreshing himself in the en-suite bathroom when Judith called "Darling, I am ready for you - and I think it is going to rain".

This was a cue he recognised would lead to only one thing and he wondered if she had chosen the rustling green or the supple whiter than white. Standing behind her and looking into the mirror he murmured. "Would you like me to put it on now?". "Yes please darling" she replied and handed him the bottle of exotic Thailand suntan lotion she bought on holiday. As he massaged her shoulders he saw in the mirror she had spread her whiter than white raincoat over the bed for protection, reminding him that Dave was going to fix that leak in the roof tomorrow.
